Heading to Bay Bridge Show?

Bay Bridges

Feb 14, 2019

More than 400 boats, up to 75 feet in length, will be on display at the 37th annual Bay Bridge Boat Show April 12-14 in Stevensville, Maryland at the Bay Bridge Marina. Climb aboard a wide array of powerboats of every style and size—from fishing boats and trawlers to pontoons and luxury cruisers. Tickets are US$12 each for one-day adult admission, and free for children 12 and under.

Not only will boaters be able to inspect all the newest models on the market, make side-by-side comparisons, talk to industry representatives and experts about all aspects of buying and owning a boat, but PropTalk Demo Dock is back again to give prospective boat buyers an opportunity to take a demonstration ride before making the final decision to buy. New this year is the VIP lounge with exclusive access to a relaxing lounge area with comfortable seating and a selection of elegant food and beverages available throughout the day.

For Canadians looking to beat the last days of winter blahs the Bay Bridge Boat Show is sure to be a great day on Chesapeake Bay. It’s a not bad drive from here or a flight to Washington and on.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
